CONTROLLER FOR HYBRID VEHICLE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a controller for a hybrid vehicle capable of enhancing fuel consumption efficiency while preventing an occupant of a vehicle from feeling incongruity in a traveling behavior.

SOLUTION: A hybrid management ECU 36 regulates updating in an addition side of a power plant required torque, under the state of a parallel drive mode at the cruise control time when a vehicular speed VP follows a set vehicular speed VC, to be held in a prescribed torque concerned in a locked-up upper limit torque, and executes switching to a series drive mode, when the vehicle speed VP is decreased to a value less than a value obtained by subtracting an upper limit value ΔVSof a vehicular speed deviation from the set vehicle speed VC.
